Large Scale Manufacturing
From automotive assembly to food processing, large-scale operations require open lines of communication to be successful. The wired systems of the past are simply too cumbersome and too expensive to be practical in today’s manufacturing environment. With the constant push for leaner, more efficient methods, organizations should look to wireless mesh for their communication needs. In these environments, wireless mesh can provide a powerful, scalable and cost-effective way to transmit information fast.
With Azalea's wireless mesh technology, manufacturing operations can immediately eliminate the complicated network layouts, heavy workload and large costs associated with installation, deployment and maintenance. And, while many operations run 24/7 to maximize up-time, wireless mesh provides easy deployment that will not interrupt day-to-day operations.
The Azalea solution is simple – choose a location, install the routers, power on and upload the logistics management system. This easy-to-implement approach enables logistics operations to experience seamless coverage in locations where wired Internet access is not practical or available.
- With wireless communications, inventory information, including barcode scans and RFID, can be quickly sent from hand-held devices to anyone in the network
- High-quality video and audio can be streamed over wireless mesh broadband, enabling superior surveillance over a wide area. Surveillance can be viewed in real time, or easily stored for later review
- Telecomm voice through wireless mesh broadband delivers secure, reliable communications with no monthly phone bills
The Azalea Advantage
Azalea Networks' wireless mesh technology solves the problems associated with wired and alternative wireless networks.
Support existing standard Wi-Fi terminals to protect investments
With Azalea mesh networks, existing investments in Wi-Fi technologies such as terminals, routers, and handsets can continue to be used without any system modifications.
Offer secure access
Azalea wireless mesh routers support any existing standard VPN tunnel, thus enhancing flexibility and security for different corporate internal network visits.
Experience technical superiority & focusAzalea‘s
proprietary technologies deliver high-speed broadband and video access
over long distances. Wireless mesh is more affordble and easier to
deploy, making it a compelling mode of transmission. In addition,
Azalea can deploy routers in remote settings with no power by adding
solar panels to router towers.
Enhance the distribution/customer relationshipAzalea
operates through and supports distributors, resellers and system
integrators. This allows customers to maintain existing, trusted
relationships.
Take advantage of a cost-effective structureAzalea
engineering and production teams are a blend of U.S. and China-based
expertise, combining the best technology at the greatest value to the
customer.
Eliminate the need to deploy countless wire linesHistorically,
networking an environment meant deploying a large number of wires. With
Azalea wireless mesh solutions, often only one wireless mesh router is
physically connected to the wired network, saving both time and money.
With Azalea's routable genuine mesh technologies, network topology is
completely flexible, allowing users a choice in wired gateway placement
for maximum cost effectiveness.
Expand or optimize coverage — anytime, anywhere With
Azalea, there is no need to implement an entire network in just one
step. Azalea technology enables the coverage of key areas first and can
be easily expanded to other areas as appropriate. Azalea is able to
raise the ratio of network usage, reduce the difficulty of network
deployment, and lower the initial investment.
Ensure maximum network reliability with genuine mesh technology Azalea
wireless mesh is self-healing through Azalea patent-pending AWR™
routing mechanisms. This makes the mesh network fully routable and
flexible. If any radio link fails, another route will automatically be
created. With Azalea, no one single point of failure will affect the
network performance, unlike most commonly used tree topologies from
other vendors.
Maintain continuous network serviceAzalea’s
patent-pending Motrix™ roaming algorithm supports high-speed roaming in
a Layer-3 implementation. This allows individuals to use Wi-Fi
terminals for high-speed Internet access while on the move. An
automatic roaming algorithm ensures that there is no disruption to
voice, video, or data transmission.
Supports enterprise-class securityAll
Azalea wireless mesh equipment supports existing 802.11i standards such
as Open, WEP, WPA-TKIP, and WPA-AES. Adhering to enterprise-class
standards ensures that data transmitted over the airwaves remains
secure.
